Davis**, **22, led all qualified Cardinals minor leaguers in OPS (1.147), on-base
pct. (.464), slugging pct. (.683), extra-base hits (12) and RBI (23), while also
ranking among the leaders in batting average (.333, 4^(th)), home runs (5, T3^(rd)),
walks (17, 2^(nd)), runs (16, 5^(th)), and total bases (43, T5^(th)).  The left-
handed batter reached safely in 18 of his 20 games played and recorded an RBI in
13 games, including a season-high 5 RBI vs. St. Lucie on June 28.  It is Davis’ 
first career organizational Minor League Player of the Month award selection.

“In June, Chase led the league in on-base percentage, slugging and OPS, hitting 
five home runs in 20 games, helping the Palm Beach Cardinals win the first half 
of the FSL East Division and a playoff berth,” said Cardinals Assistant GM & Director
of Player Development **_Gary LaRocque_**.

The 6’1, Sacramento native was selected in the 1^(st) round (21^(st) overall) of
the 2023 MLB Draft following his junior year out of Arizona, where he finished his
career with the third-most home runs in school history.  He is currently rated as
the 6^(th) best prospect in the Cardinals organization by _Baseball America_, and
leads Palm Beach on the season with 24 XBH and 40 RBI.  Davis was also recognized
as the Florida State League Player of the Week from June 10-16.

Mathews, 23, posted a 3-0 record with a 2.10 ERA (7 ER/30.0 IP), 0.80 WHIP with 
37 strikeouts and just 15 hits allowed across five starts.  He made four consecutive
quality starts at High-A Peoria to begin the month before being promoted to Double-
A Springfield where he allowed just one hit over 5.1 innings in a no-decision on
June 30.  He also tallied his third double-digit strikeout performance of the season,
punching out 11 (with no walks) versus South Bend on June 16.  The 6’4”, southpaw
was named to the National League All-Star Futures Game roster on July 2.

“Before Quinn’s promotion to Springfield in late June, his month was highlighted
by four quality starts in Peoria, 24.2 innings, seven earned runs, six walks and
34 strikeouts,” stated **LaRocque**.

Ranked as the 98^(th) overall prospect by _Baseball America_ in its latest midseason
update, Mathews was selected in the 4th round of the 2023 MLB Draft out of Stanford,
where he was named the 2023 Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year and ranked second in Division
I with 158 strikeouts.  Overall this season, Mathews is 6-2 in 14 starts across 
three different levels with a 2.03 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 113 strikeouts (2nd-most in
MiLB).

After also being selected in April of this year, Mathews becomes the third pitcher
ever to take home Cardinals Minor League Pitcher of the Month honors twice in his
first professional season, joining left-hander **_[Rick Ankiel](https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/a/ankieri01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&utm_source=www.nyrdcast.com&utm_campaign=2024-07-05_br)_**(
